Sounds as if that is what I need, but I'm such a Linux newbie I'm not sure
how to do that. Can you give me some more detail, please? I appreciate your
help...thanks very much, if you have the time.

Basically you want to pipe the output of command upsc <myups> ups.status to a
simple mail program. On the command line it would look something like
upsc <myups> ups.status 2>/dev/null | mailx -s "UPS status"

When this is working, put it in a shell script called ups-report and call it on
system start by adding the line
@reboot root ups-report &
to /etc/crontab. See
